The Hawaiian Coffee Belt

Today, there are a multitude of coffee farms in South Kona, which harvest the uniquely Hawaiian Kona coffee bean. Many coffee farms provide tours and free tastings. The “coffee belt” in Kona is approximately two miles wide from 700 feet (210 m) to 2,000 feet (610 m) elevation. Other districts on the island where coffee is grown include Kaʻū in the far south, Puna in the southeast, and Hāmākua in the northeast.
